Abstract:Objective: Although pituitary adenomas have benign histomorphological features, some of them may present in an aggressive manner. To predict the behaviour of these tumours, telomerase reverse transcriptase (TErT) activity in pituitary adenomas has been the subject of a few studies with contradictory results. This study aims to investigate whether immunohistochemical expression of TErT differs in neoplastic and nonneoplastic pituitary tissues and aims to investigate whether TErT expression is related to clinico… Show more
